From the reviews

I'm so grateful and blessed to have met Kelly from Zen Heart Center in downtown Bothell. I received a wonderfully relaxing Vibrational Sound Therapy (VST) session from her today and rose from it feeling refreshed and energized! Kelly was very instructive about the steps and process of the session before it started.

★★★★★ — Tammy, Jan 2026

I’ve been taking classes at Zen Heart Center for 10 months. I’m so glad I got started here. The teachers are wonderful. I feel a part of the community. I was practicing yoga and meditation at home, and it was lonely. I really enjoy practicing in community-I feel the energy of the group enhances my practices.

★★★★★ — Cynthia, Feb 2026

We are so lucky to have a space like Zen Heart Center right here in Bothell! I have already noticed positive changes in my mental and physical health after trying a few different classes with Kelly.

Your first tai chi class at Zen Heart Center

Nervous about walking into a tai chi class for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a gentle warm-up, then learning a few slow movements of the form, step by step — no pressure to get it perfect, and you can rest or sit whenever you need to. What to wear: loose, comfortable clothing you can move in, and flat, flexible shoes (some studios practice in socks or bare feet). What to bring: water, and that's about it — there's no equipment to buy. Arrive a few minutes early to say hello to the instructor and mention it's your first class. It comes together faster than you'd think — most people feel far more at ease by their second or third visit.

Tai chi is gentle and low-impact, but it's still exercise, and the health notes here are general information, not medical advice. If you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them to the instructor before class, and check with your doctor before starting a new exercise program.
